Burning Question - Change and stress

The effects of change and restructuring on an employee’s health and well-being are often overlooked.

However, the employer has a legal duty of care for the physical and mental well-being of staff.

Well-managed change should include the following: explaining to staff why the changes are required and when they will take effect, thorough risk assessment, consulting staff at all stages, and providing retraining when required.

CSP health and safety reps with their consultative and inspection rights can greatly assist members through these periods of change.

Speak to your rep or telephone the CSP on 020 7306 6666 for further information and support.
